BATTLEFIELD OR BED OF ROSES?
Being in love...
...makes you smile;
...is more like being on a battlefield than in a bed of roses;
...is bad for your health;
...means wedding bells;
...is the strongest emotion you will ever feel;
...is hearts and flowers;
...is only for young people;
...is better than having all the money in the world;
...quickly changes to habit;
...is like being on a roller-coaster — one minute you're high and the next minute you're very low;
...is the chocolate sauce on the vanilla ice cream of life - without it, life is nice but not delicious;
...is playing a fool's game;
...distracts you from the more important things in life;
...is cynical;
...is romantic;
...is realistic.

Dave: You're pulling my leg! She must be twenty years younger than Joe. Talk about robbing the cradle!
Brad: Well, you can bet this relationship's going to be a. flash in the pan.

Brad: It's very obvious. They're dating each other.
Dave: You're kidding! She must be twenty years younger than Joe. Talk about dating someone much younger than you!
Brad: Well, you can bet this relationship's going to be temporary.
Dave: It must have been a case of falling in love- at the first encounter because I know he didn't have a girlfriend last week.
Brad: I think you're absolutely right. Actually, my father proposed to my mother after knowing her only two weeks. They got married a month later!
